The LawTech Center at UVA Law
UVA Law has launched the LawTech Center, focusing on pressing questions in law and technology. The center addresses policy issues, legal texts as data, and technology’s use in the legal profession. Danielle Citron is serving as the center’s inaugural director.
“While some of the topics may be focused on matters at the heart of public debate — like the legal responsibilities of online platforms, privacy and security legislation, or algorithms used in criminal sentencing — others may be dedicated to educating students, academics, lawyers and the public about the laws and policies governing networked technologies,” Citron said. “We also have a tradition at UVA of using empirical methods to examine legal texts and teaching about how lawyers and the legal system use technology.”
